Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1349: Chapter 311: Witch Clan Forbidden Land, Are There Still Masters?

Sure enough, Ni Wenjun was caught by Xu Shouhui on the weakness of human nature. The eunuch said one sentence, and there was no way to continue to investigate. He could only frown.

He looked at the eunuch on the ground with eyes that could kill, kicked and cried out loud. This is really a clumsy ’self-inflicted injury’.

And then Xu Shouhui turned his head and said to Ni Wenjun: ”Great General, don’t stoop to the level of a thing that is neither male nor female like him. How could he possibly understand the broad mindset of the Great General? He himself is a worm, so he thinks everyone is a worm, and there are no good people left!”

Xu Shouhui scolded the eunuch, then turned and smiled at Ni Wenjun: ”Great General, don’t take it to heart. Who doesn’t know that the Great General is as righteous as the clouds and sky, and you can rest assured to rescue the General of Cavalry serving me.”

Ni Wenjun was stunned looking at Xu Shouhui—Chen Jiusi’s title is General of Eastern Expedition.

At this moment, Xu Shouhui said: ”This time in the Battle of Qingniu Ridge, General Chen made outstanding contributions. Such merit must surely be rewarded with promotion.”

”So I have decided to promote him to General of Cavalry, ranking third in the entire army, only behind you, Great General, and the Right Wing General. What do you think, Great General?”

Ni Wenjun listened to this and said: ”Your Majesty’s decision is very good; my Brother Jiu Si was born to be a great general, worthy of your General of Cavalry.”

Xu Shouhui laughed and said: ”Certainly, certainly, General Chen is willing to assist me, which is a gesture of goodwill to our State Preceptor. I know all about it. Otherwise, with General Chen’s talents, the King Qi would surely be willing to recruit him as a Minister.”

”All of this is clear to me, so I swear that I will never treat General Chen unfairly.”

”Now that General Chen is in crisis, my heart is in turmoil. If I could, I would love nothing more than to personally ride out to rescue my Great General Chen.”

”Unfortunately, I am useless.”

Xu Shouhui spoke so sincerely that Ni Wenjun believed him. At this time, he looked at Xu Shouhui and said: ”Your Majesty, do you truly think so?”

Xu Shouhui said: ”Certainly, if I have the slightest bit of falsehood in my words, may I be struck by lightning!”

Due to the diminishing Heaven and Earth’s Power in this world, Xu Shouhui dared to swear recklessly. If Heaven and Earth’s Power were still present, he wouldn’t dare speak nonsense.

The Sima Family is a prime example, the oath by the Luo River, Sima Yi swore by the Luo River never to reckon with the descendants of the Cao Family, or his descendants would cease to exist. And the result? Old Deng chose to go back on his word, as soon as the Cao family surrendered, he raised the butcher’s knife and slaughtered them mercilessly.

It can be said that he treated his own reputation like garbage. And what was the outcome? The Heavenly Dao found justice, dispatched Liu Yu, who after acquiring power used the Sima family genealogy to kill, exterminating the entire Sima family down to the children, truly fulfilling Sima’s past vow.

Liu Yu stated: ”Who invented genealogy? It’s really useful.”

Since the Sima family, political credibility in Huaxia declined, and since then no one believed in oaths. It’s fair to say the Sima family’s disgrace directly set back political trust in Huaxia by two thousand years.

Thus, Xu Shouhui is now enjoying the Sima family’s ’benefits’, freely lies without worry.

Ni Wenjun was taken aback, pondered for a moment, and genuinely felt there was some truth to it. He was genuinely prepared to temporarily hand over military power of the Left Army to Xu Shouhui and Zhao Pusheng, thinking it won’t be long, just a few days, and things shouldn’t go awry.

This mistake made by Ni Wenjun is surprising, you hand over military power, but wanting it back later would be dreaming. They will have a hundred ways to keep that military power in their hands.

If military power is handed over to Xu Shouhui, Zhao Pusheng, it’s like a meat bun for a dog—never coming back!

Now, as Xu Shouhui’s plan is about to be accomplished, Zeng Aniu suddenly came panting and said: ”General.”

Ni Wenjun turned around and saw Zeng Aniu: ”Why have you come?”

Zeng Aniu said: ”Brother Chen asked me to pass you a message before he left, never hand over military power, and no need to look for him!”

”Hmm!”

Ni Wenjun turned his head and looked at Zeng Aniu: ”Really?”

Zeng Aniu said: ”General, how could I deceive you? Every word I said is true!”

Upon hearing this, Ni Wenjun fell into silence, while Xu Shouhui and Zhao Pusheng’s faces darkened. Xu Shouhui said to Ni Wenjun: ”Great General, don’t listen to this person’s nonsense. Does he know that General Chen might be very dangerous now? Does he know General Chen’s importance to the Empire?”

”If General Chen falls, our Empire loses a brilliant leader, and this loss is not something that could simply be compensated by a few words from a murdering fool, can it?”

The two of them looked at Zeng Aniu: ”Great General, wretched schemers like him must be killed to prevent others’ hearts from wavering!”

Zeng Aniu’s face turned red from the accusations, shouted angrily: ”I’m not lying, these are Brother Chen’s original words, they’re framing me, General.”

Ni Wenjun was conflicted, he believed Zeng Aniu wouldn’t lie to him, but it would also be as Xu Shouhui and Zhao Pusheng had said, is it really right to not care about Chen Brother’s life or death just because he’s not lying?

Thinking this, Ni Wenjun was torn, while Xu Shouhui and Zhao Pusheng became anxious.

Xu Shouhui was troubled and said to Ni Wenjun: ”What is the Great General still hesitating on? Time waits for no one, we must hurry to rescue General Chen; don’t delay any longer.”

Looking at Xu Shouhui like this, Ni Wenjun suddenly froze and then stared at Ni Wenjun, saying: ”Are you in a hurry?”

Xu Shouhui frowned: ”No, I’m anxious for you, Great General. I’m anxious for General Chen.”

Upon hearing these words, Ni Wenjun suddenly calmed down.
